[Faldrass] Saoire's Dream

[Pegasus]

!	Message from: Peg
	Please note that, from 1st Ymiden 721, there is a massive Oak Tree in the central courtyard of Saoire's Dream. Known as the Naficula-Àdánù (Magic Tree), this is the place where all gateways to and from the school appear. Anyone who asks (and many who don't!) are told that the tree was a gift to Lady Saoire from her Storyteller, the tunawa Knight, Sir Kisaik.

Dream of the Blue Turtle

A School for Idalos

On the 1st Cylus 721, as the new Arc began on Idalos, a new building was created, some time after the eruption of Faldrass and the destruction of so much. So many lives had been lost but, in the darkness there shone a glimmer of hope. Saoire, the Immortal of Turtles herself, had taken residence on Scalvoris. From the mainland could be seen twinkling lights and people told of a new building, a new school, a new place. Eventually, it became ~ like the Sentry ~ part of the new layout of Faldrass.

With the volcano always ever-present in the background, Saoire's Dream is many things. It is - first and foremost - a school. A place for learning, but more than that. Saoire, as the Immortal of Mentorship, is interested in helping people grow, to be the best version of themselves they can be. She is concerned that those who come here get the very best they can from it and she has incredibly high standards of her teachers.

Saoire's Dream is a labyrinthian structure. Some say that the staircases move, others speak of rooms far above the number which it would be possible to house there. Yet, no one is telling much. There is only one way into Saoire's Dream, through the large and beautiful front entrance, based at the south of the building. Inside that entrance is a sprawling reception; people of all races are welcome here, in Saoire's Dream, and there are desks throughout the reception area. Some of them are appropriate for a tunawa, others for cadouri-sized beings, yet others for human-sized visitors and there are large desks for Ithecal and Ellune and their ilk. High vaulted ceilings in the reception are made from Egilrun-crafted glass and rainbows of light are ever-present, even at night.

Beyond the reception area are the classrooms of Saoire's Dream. Ranging from small comfortable rooms with overstuffed armchairs for small groups, to massive lecture halls. There were rooftop gardens and large open-grass courtyard in the very center of the building. There are tall towers, and an entire wing underwater, so that Mer can learn here as easily as anyone else. In that "Water Wing", as it is called, some of the classrooms are completely dry, some totally submerged. No one knows how or why. The philosophy of Saoire's Dream is simple and accessible to all.

The classes taught here are not academic classes in competition with the University. In fact, some courses are shared between the two. Saoire's School teaches practical skills, trade skills, life skills. From self-help and group therapy to basic reading, maths for people who are scared of numbers, shoemaking, basketweaving and smithing. Students in the University who are studying Biology or Zoology or Medicine or Surgery, for example, might learn their theory in the University building, and come here for practical lessons on Caregiving or Animal Husbandry. They work with the Menagerie, too.

But the one thing which is not taught here?

Weapons. No weapon skills are taught here, no weapons are weilded in these halls.

Mentorship here has a very broad meaning and so, there are always classes going on. It is well known that there are many ways to pay for classes here. Some people pay with money, but if an individual can not afford to pay in that way, then they may pay with time. Saoire is very happy to encourage this - and she does not always insist that they pay in time to the School. Depending on their skills, she asks that they work in a place most suited.

It is said that anyone can travel to Saoire's Dream and - to an extent - that is true. Once a season, on the first trial of the new season, the doors to Saoire's Dream are open no matter where on Idalos you are. All that an individual needs to do is to knock any door, pray to Saoire, and they will be transported to Saoire's Dream when they walk through the door. However, there are specific issues with that, which are also known. People who do this must be free to do it - if they are incarcerated etc, they can not. Only those with the intent of actually studying or teaching at the school may do so - it is not free transport for the sake of it. Finally, it can only be done once per arc by any one person.

Job Role: Saoire's Assistant
NPC Skills: Logistics, Caregiving, Socialization, etc
Available to Teach: Not usually. PM Peg
Status: No mod input needed.
Personality: A wordy, quite fussy, but fundamentally very kind individual, Horatio B Thunderbussel III absolutely loves his job. He knows everyone, is able to name students and teachers here at Saoire's School. He seems unable to go for more than 10 minutes without mentioning his wife (Millicent) or how very beautiful she is (also kind, clever, caring, etc). His favourite thing to do is to talk to people, and somehow he always knows the gossip. Thankfully, he is as good at keeping secrets as he is at finding them and so he knows a lot - but tells very little.
Likely to talk about: Flowers. Millicent. Saoire.
Accent: Talks like a 1940s British guy.

Level and Subject Studying: Teaches Expert Acting, Competent Brewing

Skills: Master Acting, Expert Writing, Expert Brewing, Competent Teaching, Competent Science, Competent Cooking, Competent Storytelling

Brief Description of Personality: Romeo is, above all else, a gentleman. A dramatic, passionate gentleman who sometimes lets the spirits move him a little too much, and can become emotional by whatever he is working on, but he is always a gentleman. Acting is his first love, but he is a cadouri with many interests. Brewing has always been one of those, finding inspiration in the dramatic arts and world around him for his creations. Well-respected as a teacher, he does tries to bring out the best in every student.

Walt Whetman, Fishing Tutor

Name: Walt Whetman
Created by: Darius Baer
Race: Cadouri
Birthday/Age: Arc 689, 67th of Vhalar
Title: Fishing tutor
Skills: Cooking (Competent), Field Craft (Competent), Hunting (Expert), Swimming (Expert), Teaching (Competent), Writing (Novice)
Details: Despite standing at a somewhat unintimidating 4'2", Walt Whetman is considered a giant among fisherfolk.

The cadouri has spent most of his life fishing, either to sell his catches for money, or to simply keep himself fed. In recent times, he has realised that he could also earn nels by teaching other people the art of fishing, and he now earns his livelihood through a mix of teaching and fishing in his own time.

Walt has the colourings of many of his kin, with a dark greyish brown on his dorsal side and a light grey throat. Deep, dark brown eyes stare out at the world from behind grey whiskers that twitch as he speaks.

Although he only teaches others how to become adept at catching fish using a rod, a spear, or a net, Walt himself prefers to let his otter routes come to the fore, catching fish with his teeth - especially when on his own. He is more likely to catch fish than to cook them, often preferring to eat them raw. It is perhaps because of this that his breath almost always smells of fish.

In his spare time, Walt also likes to write poetry, though he isn't aware that he isn't very good at it.

Garth Kindman, Professor of Kindness, Teaching and Medicine. Singing student

Name of NPC: Garth Kindman

Date started: Cylus 1st 721
Skills:

Caregiving: Master
Discipline: Master
Teaching: Expert
Psychology: Expert
Socialization: Competent
Medicine: Competent
Gardening: Competent
Singing: Competent

Brief Description of Personality: Garth is one of the kindest of the instructors of Saoire's school, if one can even quantify kindness. But not only that, he's also one of the most patient of Peer Mentors on the island. Even the hardest and road-bitten adventurer has been won over by his kind and well-chosen words. It would take a truly awful and vile person to speak ill of or be mean to Garth Kindman.

Mister Tinkles, Smithing Tutor

Name: Mister Tinkles
Created by: Darius Baer
Race: Cadouri
Birthday/Age: Arc 682, 19th of Saun
Title: Blacksmith tutor
Skills: Athletics (Novice), Smithing (Expert), Strength (Competent), Teaching (Competent)
Details: Mister Tinkles likes sleeping, silently judging others, and smithing - and usually in that order.

With an appearance resembling that of a housecat, the cadouri stands at 3'4" with a stocky frame. He is always seen wearing a thick leather apron, a pair of heat-resistant gloves, and a grumpy facial expression. He also wears a necklace with a small, glowing pendant, which makes a gentle tinkling sound - similar to that of a small bell - whenever he moves. Mister Tinkles does not like the bell, but he has not been able to remove the necklace, so has accepted it as one of the literal burdens in life that he must bear.

Mister Tinkles has many smithing tools, but he tends to use a particular hammer more than anything else. It is his favourite tool, because it has an image of him - complete with his sunny disposition - on its head.

Mister Tinkles does not suffer fools, but he will teach smithing to any student who appears to be genuinely willing to learn.

Mister Tinkles doesn't like being called Mister Tinkles - he thinks it damages his tough blacksmith reputation - but he has yet to find a suitable alternative.

• Saoire's Kiss

Widget T Gubbins, Professor of Turtles and Construction

Name: Widget Tucker Gubbins
Created by: Kisaik
Race: Cadouri (Beaver)
Birthday/Age: Ashan 55th, 685
Title: Professor of Turtle Herding (Animal Training and Care with a specialization in Reptiles and Amphibians) and Construction (Specializing in agricultural construction and dams) in Saoire's School.
Skills:

Animal Training: 80
Animal Husbandry: 80
Woodworking: 60
Swimming: 60
Teaching: 40
Medicine: 40

Details: Widget has a very important calling in Saoire's Dream. His great great grand father and mother were both turtle herders, and since every member of their family has been a part and parcel to that calling in their time. Although they often have different focuses, the turtle herding is in Gubbins' family line. Given the sanctity of turtles to Saoire, this grants them a particularly special status, yet one that comes with great responsibility.

Widget Gubbins is a very serious cadouri, who takes his profession equally serious, and does not tolerate frivolity when it comes to affairs of the turtle, and dam construction. His calling is very important to him, and he doesn't appreciate students who make light of any aspect of it, or look on the turtles as cute novelties.

He's downright vengeful when it comes to anyone who mistreats a turtle intentionally.

But to anyone who treats his calling with the respect it deserves, he's a doughty ally. He tends to stick to his first impression of any person he meets, and his opinion rarely strays far from that initial impression.

Name of NPC Herman McGerman
Level and Subject Studying: Peer Mentor for Master Construction
Date started Cylus 721
Skills : Master Engineering, Expert Leadership, Expert Woodworking, Competent Teaching, Competent Strength, Competent Endurance, Competent Science

Brief Description of Personality: Herman is an intense and focused individual with a lot of personality. He's quite skittish and prone to being easily startled but he has a deep passion for "building things of beauty" and loves being a peer mentor. Really, he's happiest when working on a project with a small group of like-minded fellows and finds teaching rather frustrating when his students do not behave.

He enjoys pranks, reading, and crochet.

Skills : Master Jewelcrafting, Master Alchemy, Expert Pottery, Competent Needlework, Competent Woodwork, Competent Art, Competent Teaching

Brief Description of Personality: Mavis is a rather shy individual who always works as a peer mentor, never as a teacher. She is married to Reggie McNulty, which is a very odd pairing since she is 2ft tall and he is nearly 6ft. However, with his skill in Smithing and her in jewelcrafting, they work very well together. Reggie often calls her in as a guest speaker to his classes, but the thought of running her own class terrifies her.

Brief Description of Personality: Standing at nearly 6ft, Reggie doesn't appear to be your typical blacksmith. He is always well dressed and is rather quietly spoken. He is, however, an excellent smith and he is very passionate about his job. He and his wife, Mavis, work together to make wonderful, beautiful things and he is an enthusiastic teacher. He would like - one day - to own a small plot of land and fancies himself as something of a farmer - but has no skill in it.

Brief Description of Personality: A very friendly and sometimes flirty and mischeivous cadouri. Tabitha has a passion for hats, and loves to make them as fancy and detailed as possible.

Submitted by: Kisaik.
Skills:
Ensorcelling: Master
Meditaiton: Master
Discipline: Expert
Endurance: Expert
Woodworking: Competent
Textile Production: Competent
Teaching: Competent
Caregiving: Competent

Brief Description of Personality: Lucius is not the most talented teacher, but IS however one of the more impressive teachers willing to mentor in the art of ensorcelling. He teaches theoretical ensorcelling for the most part. This involves all the supplementary skills leading up to the actual act of ensorcelment and then familiarizing students with both the process and the methodology. He also offers hands-on guidance to those who are lucky enough to find wells out in a fracture. He's not very patient and has been known to tell students off when they aren't careful. He isn't shy about flunking students out if they lack the dexterity and talent to pursue well craft. It's more important to him that his students survive, rather than get a pat on the back only ro then blow themselves and others up later.

Brief Description of Personality: Otto is a rambunctious squirrel Cadouri. Unlike many squirrel cadouri that are shorter, he stands at around 4'5". He's somewhat impatient with his students, and doesn't tolerate students who won't pay attention or keep up with his speed. Perhaps not the best at teaching novices at Pottery and Sculpting, yet he has been known to make exceptions for those who will put in the extra effort to learn on their own.

Brief Description of Personality: Humphrey Humphington is an absolutely cheerful and enthusiastic raccoon Cadouri that is fascinated even by the smallest and simplest of things. He talks a lot; it often seems as if he doesn’t even pause in order to take a breath, in fact. He is very excited about his studies. He does in fact get carried away and overdo it every once in a while. His problem is that he just doesn’t know when it is time to stop. Humphrey is a very fashionable Cadouri, he likes wearing suits and frilly and lacy shirts and such.

Brief Description of Personality: Skeet isn't the most talented or skilled singer, but through sticking to it persistently and genuine love of songs and lyrics, she's be given a chance at attending a beginner's class of vocalists. She's really more of a rhyme and lyricist than a singer though, and as such has risen to the heights through the efforts of better singers giving her a good word in the faculty, and espousing her great writing skills when choosing someone for the special classes. She stands at about 5' tall even with a lithe build and a black/brown splotches coat.

He tends toward clothing that are fashionable yet functional, as he likes to stay active at many of his pursuits. He hopes to one day become an adventurer, but for now must learn a trade to start to save up for his dream. Making hats seems to him to be a good start, as he'll be able to make his own travel wear when he gets started on his adventuring career.

29th of Cylus 721

Kalortah landed on the grounds of Saoire's dream, in front of the gates. Unfortunately, he couldn't make a grand entrance into a courtyard or some such, but he was more than happy to respect the front door, given his friendship with Saoire herself.

He entered through the reception, and there, asked for a form to fill out. Once the cadouri on hand slipped him the form, he began filling it out.

Name of PC: Kalortah Satravial
Applying for the role of: Peer Mentor (Singing)
Qualifications / Experience: He's got an unapproved Diploma in Singing Here otherwise, right now he has a letter in singing. He's a GM singer.

This done, he turned his eyes upward at the cadouri, quirking a brow expectantly, "Well, when do I start? And who will be learning singing from the best voice this side of Idalos?"

He smirked in self-satisfaction, but in truth, he needn't be so humble. He was, after all, the best singer on Scalvoris, at least.

Lady Saoire, Saoire's School

Dear Lady Saoire,

I'm right sorry if Im supposed to use a different title. And before I start, I just wanted to say thank you for making Ziellmass such a nice thing and bringing so many smiles and joy to people.

Anyhow, I thought I should let you know that four cadouri (Yalane, Orville, Steve and Tah'an) came to Hopetoun, where I'm living, yestertrial. They told us of three others (Harold, Vincent and Winston) who'd gone looking for etchwings and not come back.

I went with my friend Escher to try and find Harold, Vincent and Winston, and tracked them to a big tree. Vincent was very badly hurt - I healed him with an ability what Xiur grants me, and then we brought him and the other two back to Hopetoun. Vincent is recovering.

Lady Saoire, I'm worried that this kind of thing might happen again, an I'd never want to have any kind of danger to people which I could help with. So, I'm offering - if you'd like - to teach survival and hunting and fieldcraft and woodworking - but I'd like to teach out of Hopetoun. The lands around your school are known as the Badlands, and they're not named wrong from what I've heard. So, since I know this place and I know where to take folks, I'd be happy to do that. I don't want paying or anything like that - I'm just offering to help out.

Please find enclosed four feathers of an etchwing. They were well brave and when it attacked them, the three of them fought it off. They wanted to make you a hat an put an etchwing feather in it. They tell me there's a teacher at your school who makes hats, and I promised I'd send them.

Hope you're well, Lady Saoire.

Take care,

Vega

Dear Lady Saoire,

I'm sorry to bother you, but I wanted to warn you about somethin and ask you for help.

The reason for both those things is that Xiur visited me and a friend of mine, Doran, yestertrial. He gave us a job to do. We're going to be building a beacon of hope in Hopetoun because there's a bunch of people arriving. I'm also looking after Wren, the son of my friend, Hart, and with him I'm making an entrance archway with a freeze on it telling the story of Hopetoun.

The warning I need to give you, if you don't know alredy is that in a few days there's going to be a "sudden chill" which is goin to cause a fog to obscure Faldrass. I thought you'd want to know. I've also let Haven know, but I don't think there's anyone else what needs telling.

As for help, I was wonderin if you have any thoughts about either building the beacon of hope or the people who are going to be arrivin? The beacon is going to be a lighthouse, and we're going to make it on top of a really tall phoenix tree, constructing a light there what's burning with yellow dragon wood and is magnificated and made into a beacon by special glass which has been alchemicified by glowing sand. We're going to make it be a genuine giver of hope, by using some of the abilities Xiur has granted me, but if you've got any ideas or could offer any help Lady Saoire, we'd be right grateful.

Also, there's goin to be people arrivin in Hopetoun who need medical and physical care. I don't know how many, but we're trying our best to prepare. Xiur said it would be a ship of former slaves, so we're tryin to make sure that they're well looked after. If you've got any thoughts on that, too, I'd be well grateful. We can feed people and things, but I'm worried about meeting all their needs, you know?

Thank you, Lady Saoire. Hope you're well.

Dear Lady Saoire,

On behalf of Baron Darius Baer, it is my pleasure to invite you to a feast at Hopetoun. At dusk on the 1st Ymiden, we will be hosting a feast to give thanks for all that has been achieved in our community. It is our aim to give thanks to Saoire, to Xiur, to every one of you who has brought us hope, and to look to the future.

We look forward to seeing you.

Vega Creede,
Hopetoun.

PS: Lady Saoire would you please ask the other Immortals and Faldrass the Induk? Please? Thank you.

[Devin]

2nd of Ymiden, Arc 721

Dear Lady Saoire,

I plan on establishing a small clinic at Smooglenuff Manor and relocating my medical practice to Faldrass for the most part. As far as I know, there is no hospital in or near your school, and thus I would like to make an offer.

Feel free tell your staff as well as your students that they can come to Smooglenuff Manor if they need medical treatment. I’ll gladly help them. I can even perform surgeries, if the need arises, although anything that might require an actual overnight stay will be a bit tricky.

It goes without saying, that you can come as well if you ever don’t feel well. I’ve never treated an Immortal before, but I’ll give it a try! Can Immortals actually get sick, by the way?

Anyway, I look forward to collaborating with your school and you and strengthening the relationship between the Smooglenuff Barony and Saoire’s Dream. I plan on accepting that job offer once the Barony is running properly. I’ll probably teach cosmetology and such!

If you ever need anything from me, let me know, please!

Sincerely,

Devin Thorn
Baron Smooglenuff

P.S.: I plan on inviting you for cake sometime, provided that you aren’t too busy! What kind of cake do you like best?

P.P.S.: Please let me know if ‘Lady Saoire’ is not the correct way to address you. I’ve never written a letter to an Immortal before. As far as I know, you are the only Immortal with an actual address, apart from Ilaren maybe, but she’s in Rharne!
